[SINGAPORE] The Attorney-General's Chambers (AGC) said on Friday (Aug 4) it has filed an application to start committal proceedings against Mr Li Shengwu for contempt of court over a Facebook post he put up on the Singapore judiciary.

In a July 15 Facebook post, which Mr Li set to "friends only" privacy setting but which was published by several websites and widely circulated on social media, he said foreign media had been cowed into self-censorship because of previous legal action.
